Global Neodymium Magnet Market (2022 to 2027) - Featuring TDK, Hitachi Metals and Baotou Tianhe Magnetics Technology Among Others

A neodymium magnet is a strong type of magnet that is composed of neodymium, boron, iron, and a few transition metals. These magnets have high strength and are very lightweight due to the fact that they are used in many applications in consumer electronics and the automotive industry. Neodymium magnets have a wide range of applications in hard disk drives, loudspeakers, headphones, anti-lock brake sensors,

MRI scanners, etc. The growing demand for neodymium magnets by various end-user industries such as automotives, consumer electronics, healthcare, and others is projected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. Growing demand for consumer electronics- converged devices such as smart TVs, smartphones, and digital setup boxes will be a major growth driver for the neodymium magnet market.

Moreover, the rising demand for MRI scanners in the healthcare industry is expected to increase the demand for neo magnets in the future because MRI scanners need high-powered magnetic activity to capture high-quality images. For purpose neo magnets are widely used in MRI scanners. Furthermore, rising demand for renewable energy and the growing installation of wind turbines across various countries are projected to increase the demand for neo magnets, which will further drive the overall market growth.

Market Drivers
